[–]BurmaJones 36 points37 points ago

this is another one of those things I had no idea about until Reddit constantly whined about it, like Rebecca Black and Justin Bieber.

[–]CRSPHC 0 points1 point ago

Out of curiosity, is he better-looking than this in the movie?

[–][deleted] 20 points21 points ago

I'm an European, and I really wonder something. Can someone tell me who the fuck is that "Magic Mike"?

[–]Your_generation 3 points4 points ago

Im American and I had the same question.

[–]Eats_Your_Babies 9 points10 points ago

It's a movie about male strippers.

[–][deleted] 9 points10 points ago

Thanks, Good Guy Greg. Now everything seems clear to me, and probably others.

[–]NimbleForce 10 points11 points ago

But he still eats your babies

[–]projectfigment 22 points23 points ago

1) No you're not 2) I personally love Magic Mike despite the fact that I haven't seen it because it's not often you see something aimed at women that's blatantly sexual. Female sexuality should be less of a big deal.

[–]terry_has_boots 9 points10 points ago

I completely agree.

[–]TacticalJok3r 9 points10 points ago

Sexuality in general should be less of a big deal. Never mind we should just make 10 more Saw movies.

[–]flamingflipflop 2 points3 points ago

And this is why people love the book '50 shades of Grey'

[–]projectfigment 0 points1 point ago

Why do people hate it so much? I think it's the same as Magic Mike, honestly, except maybe that its content is of lower quality.

[–]flamingflipflop 0 points1 point ago

I personally couldn't compare quality of content on either of them, but it is a different media! And i think that is a big part of it. Book's are one things women have always been "connected" with. dirty novels, and men with "porn", visual stuff.

Even thought apparently, if men work there imagination more, it make's them better lovers. So STOP WATCHING PORN BOYS! not saying you CAN'T, just shouldn't 100% of the time... lol

[–]dray75 0 points1 point ago

Totally saw this while creeping your profile.... . ^

But there are an entire 20,000+ redditors making the commitment to quit porn and masturbation you've probably seen it. /r/NoFap.... Women are welcome.

[–]flamingflipflop 0 points1 point ago

I had heard of it, I didn't know it was for good though! intresting, i'll take a look, see if people have reasons why and such. Thanks!

creeper...

[–]dray75 0 points1 point ago

Haha... I was curious to see if you had posted anything interesting. I was surprised by this. Lol

[–]zimbabwe7878 3 points4 points ago

tell that to all the fifty shades of grey readers that make it all a big deal.

[–]projectfigment 0 points1 point ago

By "big deal" I mean people who impose rules on female sexuality e.g. Slut shaming, blatant objectification, etc. all across the spectrum. Let the women themselves define their own sexuality. I love how Fifty Shades of Grey lets women talk about sex more comfortably and openly, although I hate the content and how some people take it waaaay too seriously. It's just porn, guys!

[–]ame614 13 points14 points ago

No. No you are not. Although I may be using it's popularity to convince my boyfriend to strip for me, entirely for the lols.

[–]timmymac 6 points7 points ago

I'm gonna download it as soon as it's available to get my wife horned up. I have no shame.

[–]superherogrrl 4 points5 points ago

Not at all, I have no interest in seeing that movie and most of my other straight female friends just can't comprehend why.

[–]Daddy_Digital 6 points7 points ago

as far as i know..yes.

[–]iAmygdala 4 points5 points ago

I'm with you.

I understand that it's a liberating change to expose female sexuality and that it's refreshing to have a movie specifically directing toward female viewers, and blah blah...

The hype over this film has gone crazy.

To each his/her own, but I will not be seeing it.

[–]whatthefuckever123 0 points1 point ago

Im with you on this. Magic mike AND Channing Tatum. All my older lady friends on facebook are going crazy for them.

[–]DBuckFactory 7 points8 points ago

I work with a bunch of older women. Most of them are late 30s or older. They are talking about this movie and it creeps me out. I could not get away with talking about a movie about female strippers the way they do. Not at work, at least. It doesn't bother me, but it's funny/interesting to see the different standards.

[–]superherogrrl 3 points4 points ago

I agree with this completely. Total double standard all the women posting how excited they are for this movie, then complaining the next day that their hubby wants to go to a strip club or see a movie just because Megan Fox or Jessica Alba or whoever is in it.

[–]DBuckFactory 1 point2 points ago

I know that, if I said some of the things that one lady I work with said, I could be in trouble with HR. It's a tad creepy. I understand how some women feel when guys go on and on about how hot this person or that person is.

[–]runsoutofspace 3 points4 points ago

Hey, baby... I've got a Magic Mike for you.

[–]akaalkatraz 0 points1 point ago

Thank god, you do exist.

[–]amazingseiderman 2 points3 points ago

Honestly, I'll probably watch it eventually. But what makes me more annoyed is the backlash of male comments about how shallow women are for wanting to see this film. EVERY OTHER GODDAMN MOVIE HAS A CLICHE STRIP CLUB SCENE... and there's always titties. Always. Not to mention prior films like "Showgirls" and "Striptease" that were dedicated to female strippers. So, fuck you male demographic and your double standards. I might go see Magic Mike just to spite you all.

[–]Grodek -1 points0 points ago

The movie is shallow. Not the women who go see it though. Just like Striptease and Showgirls are shallow. And a million other movies. I enjoyed watching Avengers a lot, it was very fun entertainment, just not very deep.

[–]shampaw_fingerspouts 4 points5 points ago

I hate these. Nothing personal, but no, you're not. There's a shiiiiit ton of people on this planet -you're not the only one doing ANYTHING. Ever.

But on the magic mike note, I went with a bunch of girl friends only knowing that it was a stripper movie and it was fun. Many a lulz were had. I suggest getting a bunch of your chick friends and going and laughing at the awkwardness of it all!

[–]Monkey_In_A_Tux 1 point2 points ago

Who's magic mike?

[–]terry_has_boots 0 points1 point ago

Male stripper in the film "Magic Mike".

[–]JadedScribe 0 points1 point ago

You're not. I'd rather just try to find some good porn. Same thing, but I actually get to see the fun stuff.

[–]cassby916 0 points1 point ago

Nope. You're definitely not alone there!

[–]CamelCash007 0 points1 point ago

Thank you.

[–]ArianFosterThePeople 0 points1 point ago

apparently it is funny and enjoyable, even if you aren't attracted to men

[–]lenush 0 points1 point ago

I think the guys of Reddit are making a much bigger deal about it than the females though. I just say yawn either way.

[–]OrangedragoN 0 points1 point ago

you tell 'em girl! whoop! whoop!

[–]JoeKewl 0 points1 point ago

I heard from my friend that Oliva Munn is topless.....so there's that.

[–]raeanin 0 points1 point ago

I've never met a straight woman under 40 who finds male stripping 'hot'.

My mother got dragged to it by her friends and said the audience was 95% middle aged women and also mostly non-caucasian, which I guess is a common stereotype I was unaware of.

[–]BPsandman84 0 points1 point ago

Am I the only one who went to see the film due to the very nice aesthetics assembled by some very talented filmmakers?

[–]KelMoe 0 points1 point ago

I am a straight female who doesn't care, either. You are not alone.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

I'm a straight woman. Who is Magic Mike?

[–]CryogenicLimbo 0 points1 point ago

Nope! Not a fuck is being given about that movie.

[–]danoll 0 points1 point ago

Get less sleazy friends, I guess. I haven't seen one post about it on Facebook, but I have seen posts about Spiderman!

[–]ComradePotato 0 points1 point ago

I think you're the only straight human who doesn't give a fuck.

[–]Peatore -1 points0 points ago

They gave enough fucks to post about it.

[–]Strangersoverfriends 0 points1 point ago

Probably not; but it's a pretty alright movie with lots of eye candy- you might like it.

[–]koolatron5000 0 points1 point ago

Yes.

[–]superultrakami 1 point2 points ago

Thank you for this. I too am a straight woman who has no fucks to give about Magic Mike. To be honest, the trailers just look like some gay guys dancing around half naked. I love gay people, don't get me wrong, I'm just not sexually attracted to them.

[–]fauxnom -2 points-1 points ago

No, shut the fuck up.

[–]sexygurl69 -4 points-3 points ago

Yes

[–]Accio_Nimbus -2 points-1 points ago

I was pretty psyched to see Magic Mike...mainly to stare at Channing Tatums abs for 2 hours. But the story line actually ended up sucking, not that I went for the story anyway...but it would have been nice to see a good movie. I actually left the theater early because I was gonna be late for something, but I wasn't even interested in seeing the end anyway. My friends told me it was completely unresolved. Can't complain about the eye candy though, and Alex Pettyfer was a nice surprise...I actually think he was much hotter than Tatum.

[–]Shr00mBaloon -1 points0 points ago

This makes me think of docter evil "I haven't laughed that hard since I was a little girl."

[–]exmojo -1 points0 points ago

Every time I see Magic Mike posts, I always think it's about DJ Magic Mike . Ahh The 90's were a magical time...

[–]rathum2323 -1 points0 points ago

Well, hi.

[–]edinbarge -1 points0 points ago

liar.

[–]tauschemo -1 points0 points ago

Yerp.

[–]supaslurp -5 points-4 points ago

shut the fuck up you're not special

we can all see your vain attempt at feeling special

whore

[–]Lohti -4 points-3 points ago

HEATHEN!

[–]ohshittree -2 points-1 points ago

Did it hurt?

[–]Ospov -2 points-1 points ago

My girlfriend went to go see it and said it was a pretty lousy movie. She said the only good thing about the movie was all the hot half naked guys. The plot and everything else was pretty bad apparently. I didn't see it myself so I don't have an opinion. I'm just going off what she told me.

[–]Absinthe42 -2 points-1 points ago

She didn't really expect it to be good, did she? I feel like expecting anything other than half naked men and hilariously bad acting to come out of this movie is foolish.

Also, I saw it last night. My abs hurt from laughing so much. It was just so awkward and ridiculous.

[–]Ospov 0 points1 point ago

I think she wanted it to be good. I doubt she really thought it would be an award winning movie or anything like that though. She saw it with some of her coworkers this past weekend and all her friends from school are seeing it this week so she'll probably end up seeing it again even though she only thought it was an ok movie.

[–]MaterMatuta -2 points-1 points ago

You are not alone, I am here with you.

Though half-naked guys are hot,

Youporn is where I'll stay.

You are not alone, I am here with you.

[–]Absinthe42 1 point2 points ago

Have you seen the movie Striptease?

[–]tupacabraisreal 0 points1 point ago

No?

[–]Absinthe42 0 points1 point ago

Find it and watch it. It basically is the version of this movie for men. And it's not porn. Sooooo yeah.

[–]Soda_Muffin -2 points-1 points ago

That image looks like a lot of not-so-straight girls I've seen.
